DCP (Zone VI) Hemraj Rajput said based on a tip off that a person in Trombay was coming to sell firearms, the police laid a trap and detained one Chetan Mali on Saturday.
After preliminary investigation, police found that Gulnaz’s family had been unhappy about her marrying outside their religion and had called them to the city to resolve the issue.
This is not the first time that a child selling racket has been busted in the low-income Shivaji Nagar area as six people were arrested in 2019 in connection with a similar racket operating from the area.
